Chilumba Chachikulu cha Hawaii chimapangidwa ndi mapiri. Pali mapiri asanu ophulika omwe apita ku chilumbachi, pazaka zapitazi kapena zoposa. Pa mapiri asanuwa, mapiriwa amaoneka ngati atatha ndipo akusintha pakati pa malo ake chishango ndi kutsika; imodzi imatengedwa kukhala yochepa; ndipo mapiri atatu otsala amagawidwa ngati yogwira ntchito.
Hualalai
Hualalai, kumbali yakumadzulo kwa Big Island ya Hawaii, ndilo lachinyumba chachitatu kwambiri komanso lachinyumba kwambiri pa chilumbachi.
Zaka za m'ma 1700 zinali zaka zochitika zazikulu zowonongeka ndi mapiko asanu ndi limodzi ophulika, ndipo ziwiri mwazi zinapanga madzi a m'nyanja. Ndege yapadziko lonse ya Kona imamangidwa pamtunda waukuluwu.
Ngakhale kuti mabizinesi, nyumba, ndi misewu yambiri mumapiri ndi Hualalai, akuyembekezeredwa kuti mapiri adzaphulika m'zaka 100 zotsatira.
Kilauea
Poyesa kuti ndi malo oyandikana nawo pafupi, Mauna Loa, asayansi tsopano atulukira kuti Kilauea kwenikweni ndi phiri lopanda mapiri, lomwe likukwera pamwamba pa makilomita oposa 60 padziko lapansi.
Mphepo yamoto ya Kilauea , yomwe ili kum'mwera chakum'mawa kwa chilumba chachikulu, ndi imodzi mwa zinthu zambiri padzikoli. Kuphulika kwake komweku (kutchedwa Pu'u'O'o-Kupaianaha kuphulika) kunayamba mu Jan. 1983 ndipo ikupitirira mpaka lero. Pakuphulika kumeneku kuposa mahekitala 500 awonjezeredwa ku gombe la Big Island.
Panthawiyi, mphepo yamkuntho yawonongeka ndi kachisi wa ku Hawaii, dzina lake Waha'ula heiau, ndipo anaphatikiza nyumba zambiri kuphatikizapo malo osungirako nyumba omwe amadziwika kuti Royal Gardens. Mlendo Woyendera.
Palibe zisonyezero zakuti kupulukira kwaposachedwapa kudzafika pamapeto nthawi iliyonse posachedwa.
Kohala
Mphepo yamkuntho ya Kohala ndi yakale kwambiri pa mapiri omwe amapanga chilumba chachikulu cha Hawaii, atatuluka m'nyanja zaka zoposa 500,000 zapitazo. Zaka zoposa 200,000 zapitazo amakhulupirira kuti kuphulika kwakukulu kwa nthaka kunachotsa chiphalaphala cha kumpoto chakum'maŵa chakumtunda chomwe chimapanga nyanja zodabwitsa zomwe zimasonyeza mbali imeneyi ya chilumbachi. Kutalika kwa msonkhanowo kwachepera pa nthawi ndi mamita 1,000.
Kwa zaka mazana ambiri, Kohala wakhala akupitirizabe kumira ndipo phokoso limathamanga kuchokera kwa oyandikana nawo awiri akuluakulu, Mauna Kea ndi Mauna Loa aika mbali ya kumwera kwa phirili. Kohala masiku ano akuwoneka kuti ndi phiri lopanda mapiri.
Mauna Kea
Mauna Kea, omwe ali ku Hawaiian amatanthauza "Mtsinje Woyera," ndi mapiri aatali kwambiri ku Hawaii ndipo makamaka phiri lalitali kwambiri padziko lapansi ngati likuyezedwa kuchokera pansi pa nyanja kupita kumtunda wawo. Icho chinalandira dzina lake, mosakayikira, chifukwa chipale chofewa chimapezeka kawirikawiri pamsonkhano ngakhale kumbali yakutali. Nthaŵi zina chipale chofewa chimatha kufika mamita angapo.
Msonkhano wa Mauna Kea uli ndi malo ambiri owona zinthu. Ikuonedwa kuti ndi imodzi mwa malo abwino kwambiri owonera kumwamba kuchokera padziko lapansi. Makampani ambiri oyendera maulendo amapereka maulendo a madzulo kumsonkhano wa Mauna Kea kuti akaone dzuŵa likamalowa ndikuyang'ana nyenyezi.
Pulogalamu ya Onizuka for International Astronomy, yomwe ili pafupi ndi msonkhanowu, ndi malo abwino kwambiri kuti mudziwe zambiri zokhudza mbiri ya phiri ndi ntchito zomwe zakhala zikuchitika.
Mauna Kea amagawidwa ngati phiri lophulika, lomwe lakhala litatha zaka 4,500 zapitazo. Komabe, Mauna Kea amatha kubweranso tsiku lina. Nthawi yomwe Mauna Kea ikuphulika ndi yaitali poyerekezera ndi mapiri otentha.
Mauna Loa
Mauna Loa ndi phiri lachiwiri kwambiri komanso lachiwiri kwambiri pazilumba zazikulu. Ndilo mapiri aakulu kwambiri padziko lonse lapansi. Powonjezereka kumpoto chakumadzulo pafupi ndi Waikoloa , kumbali yonse yakum'mwera chakumadzulo kwa chilumbacho ndi kum'maŵa pafupi ndi Hilo, Mauna Loa adakali phiri loopsa kwambiri lomwe lingathe kuphulika m'njira zosiyanasiyana.
Kalekale, Mauna Loa yafalikira kamodzi kamodzi pa zaka khumi zonse za mbiri yakale ya ku Hawaii.
Komabe, kuyambira 1949 inachepetseratu kuthamanga kwake mu 1950, 1975 ndi 1984. Asayansi ndi anthu okhala ku Big Island nthawi zonse amayang'anitsitsa Mauna Loa poyembekeza kuphulika kwake kwotsatira.
